re: Would love to see LSU play Iowa in a bowl game

“Erick Smith anticipates that LSU will face Notre Dame in the ReliaQuest Bowl on Jan. 1 in Tampa, Florida. If that happens, it'll be the first time LSU coach Brian Kelly will face Notre Dame since leaving South Bend for Baton Rouge in Dec. of 2021.”

Jes’ sayin’.

Edit for quotes from USA Today.

That was before the conference championship games, though. That same list of bowl projections had Georgia in the Sugar Bowl (CFP semifinals). If Bama and UGA get left out of the CFP, that means every SEC team below them gets knocked down a rung in the bowl tie-ins.

That’s not to say that LSU can’t still get matched up with ND, but it’s considerably less likely if FSU wins and the CFP committee leaves Bama out.
